Vulcuran: bust out laughing

DMaster: CASS: Yup Ill take this one, she takes off the dress and walks

    back into the dressing room... nude... bare ass wiggling.

DMaster: A few patrons see this and their eyes widen...

Vulcuran: Vulc: Cassie would you stop doing that

Vulcuran: Vulc: I must apologize Nantz

DMaster: Nantz: *wheels around* for what? I know Cassie, she is a

    little tart and loves to show off... you would be better to know this.

Vulcuran: Vulc: yeah and she is my tart but still with my Rank, it can be a little awkward.

DMaster: Nantz shrugs her shoulder and walks over to the counter

DMaster: NANTZ: Vulcuran, you know her... I wouldn't ask to change her.

Vulcuran: Vulc: I guess it will be this dress then Nantz

Vulcuran: give her a kiss

DMaster: She kisses you back.

Vulcuran: watch her walk away definately

DMaster: she struts her stuff down the road towards the front gates

DMaster: a few guards stop to look at her

DMaster: she winks at them and keeps walking

Vulcuran: I think I will head to the castle and go find Vatikus

DMaster: its Thursday in our days

Vulcuran: okay

DMaster: Thuralay

DMaster: Friday is the Festival.

Vulcuran: well head to the castle

DMaster: ok

Vulcuran: and go find vatikus

DMaster: you go through the inner gates

DMaster: and when you get in to the castle there is 2 knights a few

    guards in the throne room

Vulcuran: keep moving

Vulcuran: down to where I know the Vatikus office

DMaster: KING: Vulc! VULC! get over here

Vulcuran: Vulc: Yes M'lord

DMaster: Waving you over

Vulcuran: Bow 

DMaster: You also see the two Vampire Hunters

Vulcuran: Vulc: Yes M'lord

DMaster: They are around a large table

DMaster: there are maps and such

DMaster: Pluger and Wanser McBane is there

DMaster: 2 5 star guards and the vampire hunters

DMaster: A formidable group

Vulcuran: I am standing there

Vulcuran: waiting to see what the king has to say

DMaster: KING: OK, so our Vampire Hunters have tracked the vampires to this

    cavern... well hole in the earth, or a hatch... something in the ground...!

DMaster: KING: This is probably why we couldn't find them.

DMaster: KING: Guess what is under the dirt Vulc?!

Vulcuran: Vulc: what M'lord

Vulcuran: Vulc: their lair 

DMaster: he looks at you

DMaster: KING: Old Daggerdone

DMaster: KING: Most likely our head house we used to have back in the day

Vulcuran: Vulc: oh man

DMaster: The main house fell in when that crazy wizard cast a spell and it backfired.

DMaster: You two are talking about, only you, wanser and the King know anything about it

Vulcuran: Vulc: so I take it that is where this group is heading M'lord

DMaster: KING: *looks at you* Yes... I need you to lead them

DMaster: Pluger puts his hand on your shoulder

DMaster: Smiles

DMaster: The same smile he has when you two go into battle

Vulcuran: Vulc: I figured that is where ya were going with this

Vulcuran: smile at pluger

DMaster: KING: *eyes perk up* I am sorry do you have something more important to attend?

Vulcuran: Vulc: no I dont M'lord you know Camerondale comes first

DMaster: KING: *nods and looks back down*

DMaster: KING: *nods*

Vulcuran: Vulc: guess I should go get changed

DMaster: FAYLLEN: *eyes are a crazy reddish tinge*

DMaster: His skin is very smooth, unnaturally and milky white. He has white hair,
       
    forboding red eyes and is about your size

Vulcuran: Vulc: so pluger ya ready for the old days again

DMaster: Pluger nods

DMaster: FAYLLEN: *voice is eerie* we have no idea how many of these creatures are down

    there, so attacking them in their own lair would pretty much be suicide.

Vulcuran: Vulc: so what you propose is going in there with a small group then

DMaster: Fayllen glances at you with an annoying look

DMaster: FAYLLEN: No. That would be Suicide.... We will hide by the hatch.

DMaster: FAYLLEN: let them come out, once they hear their own getting

    attacked they will surely all come out to assist.

DMaster: FAYLLEN: They are an extremely loyal bunch

Vulcuran: Vulc: I should go prepare M'lord 

Vulcuran: looking at the king

DMaster: KING: Everyone get ready meet back here in 1 hour

DMaster: KING *waves for his assistant*

DMaster: you over hear him say: 

Vulcuran: take off to my room

Vulcuran: listening as I go

DMaster: KING: Call for 30 - 3 stars and Pyron along with a few clerics.

DMaster: A small well trained army

Vulcuran: head to my room

DMaster: ok you are there

Vulcuran: start changing 

DMaster: ok

DMaster: into what?

Vulcuran: I will put on my chain mail

Vulcuran: since we are dealing with vampires

DMaster: ok

DMaster: *knock on your door*

Vulcuran: and grab my sword and scabbard

Vulcuran: go answer the door

Vulcuran: open the door and see who is there

DMaster: Its Pluger with a shit eating grin on his face

Vulcuran: Vulc: and what are you grinning about Pluger

DMaster: PLUGER: *hands you a vial* Here ya go...

DMaster: PLUGER: It like holy water but it is similar to coating... so it won't drip

    off the sword

Vulcuran: Vulc: we definately are gonna need it

Vulcuran: Vulc: but wont my flame tongue burn this stuff off

DMaster: no. The sword itself to your touch is not hot or burning

DMaster: Its when used in a battle that it does damage internally of the enemy

DMaster: PLUGER: Vampires are not vunerable to fire really anyways... this

    stuff will double your damage on any undead creature.

DMaster: Pluger walks in your room

Vulcuran: Vulc: guess I am about as ready as ready gets pluger except for coating the sword

Vulcuran: Vulc: Just like the old days Pluger

DMaster: PLUGER: We can wait until we get there... *looking around the room*

DMaster: THe door is on the North wall. On the west wall is your nightstand, bed

    and dresser. The Southwall has two large windows (shuttered most of the time) with a credenza of sorts underneath

    with plants, a bowl for nick nacks and such. The East wall has your closet door, a few lanterns to keep the room

    lit. The ceiling is 20 feet high and is very plain brick. No paintings or drapery.

DMaster: PLUGER: Not much for decorating huh?

Vulcuran: Vulc: nah just plain and simple

DMaster: PLUGER: *looks at you with a grin* fitting

Vulcuran: Vulc: did ya expect it to be more decorated 

Vulcuran: smirking

Vulcuran: Vulc: sure this will be another adventure we can add to the books old friend 

DMaster: PLUGER: Well lets get out to the throne room, this is going to be

    a 2-3 hours walk

Vulcuran: grab the vial of holy water stuff and head to the throne room

DMaster: you two walk in and the Vampire Hunters are looking over the map

    talking about their plan of attack

Vulcuran: listen in

Vulcuran: see what is said and stuff

Vulcuran: trying to stay focused

DMaster: FAYLLEN: We should most likely have most of the group on the backside

DMaster: So when they leave the hole they won't be looking that way

DMaster: ADDER: Agreed.

DMaster: ADDER: We can surmise that these Vampires are barbarians, and not civilized

DMaster: FAYLLEN: *nodding in agreement* Just by the way they kill, they are not

    civilized, the Vampirism must of made them mad

DMaster: then in from the front door this striking woman walks in. In leather

    pants, a dark cloak, pitch black hair red eyes and this jagged evil looking sword

Vulcuran: look that way

DMaster: she walks over to the two vampire hunters who are happy and surprised to

    see her

Vulcuran: think I shall go stand with Pluger

DMaster: WOMAN: Yeah I guess they didn't need me in Rockdale... *rolling her eyes*

DMaster: They smile and laugh

DMaster: WOMAN: So we have a barbarian clan of vampires?

Vulcuran: Vulc: Pluger what ya think of all this

DMaster: PLUGER: *taken back a little* Another Damphiir cool

Vulcuran: smack him in the arm

DMaster: WOMAN: Quite a lineup out there, we never had that in any other town we help

Vulcuran: Vulc: you are worse than a little kid pluger

DMaster: ADDER: Yeah they are giving us 30 or so well trained guards, 2 clerics,

   2 knights and a Duke!

DMaster: WOMAN: *eyes perk up* Wow... this wont even be a challenge! *laugh*

Vulcuran: kinda still listening as I talk with pluger

DMaster: FAYLLEN: *looks over to you and Pluger standing there* Oh my apologies m'lords

DMaster: the woman turns to you two.

Vulcuran: Vulc: No need to apologize at all

DMaster: A classic like beauty, very gaunt, skins is just silky smooth

Vulcuran: make sure pluger isnt staring 

Vulcuran: Vulc: just glad we can help

Vulcuran: smile alittle

DMaster: FAYLLEN: This is....

Vulcuran: let Fayllen introduce his companion

DMaster: Wyness... she is also a damphiir... *looks at her and looks back at you*

    I am sure you figured that out already

Vulcuran: Vulc: Yes I have

DMaster: She strides over to you, and shakes your hands

DMaster: her hands are ICE cold

Vulcuran: Vulc: glad we can help Wyness

DMaster: She nods and walks away

DMaster: Pluger looks over to you nodding his head, he looks impressed

Vulcuran: smile

Vulcuran: Vulc: well old friend looks like another battle awaits us

DMaster: The King walks in

Vulcuran: Bow

DMaster: KING: Everyone ready?

Vulcuran: Vulc: looks like we are M'lord

DMaster: Everyone gathers and walks out of the castle

DMaster: head for the inner gates

DMaster: you lead them with ADDER who knows where you are going

Vulcuran: keep moving

DMaster: everyone stops and watches you walk by... whispering *whats

    going on?* and *I wonder where they are going*

Vulcuran: keep moving

DMaster: The guards get out of the way at the inner gate

Vulcuran: let's just hope Cassie hasnt caught wind of this

DMaster: you walk through and head for the outer gates

DMaster: Everyone stops and watches you, some whisper, some even cheer.

Vulcuran: keep moving 

DMaster: you make your way through the outer gates, and regroup.

DMaster: and in the distance you see Cassie and Xavier sparring just outside

    their house.

Vulcuran: Vulc: show us the way adder

DMaster: with amazing agility the two dip and dodge each other

Vulcuran: hope they dont see me anyways

DMaster: ummm you are walking with like 40 people

DMaster: its a small army... and you are less than 200 feet away... they will notice.

DMaster: The two stop look over

DMaster: both of them have bewildered looks on their face

Vulcuran: Vulc: lets get a move on Adder 

DMaster: ADDER looks at you with an annoying look...

DMaster: ADDER: Yes... sir...

Vulcuran: Vulc: sorry Adder I am just a little itchy for combat

Vulcuran: keep moving

DMaster: Xavier and Cassie both jog over to you

DMaster:

DMaster: CASS: Vulc... care to tell me what you are doing? *looking perplexed*

Vulcuran: Vulc: I will tell you all about it when I get back

Vulcuran: Vulc: lets just put it this way for the moment I am serving Camerondale

DMaster: XAVIER shrugs his shoulders...

DMaster: XAV: We can't help out?

DMaster: PLUGER: *looks at you* 

Vulcuran: kinda looking at pluger

Vulcuran: Vulc: well sure you can help

DMaster: XAV: *smiles and looks at Cass* Lets go! We will catch up

Vulcuran: Vulc: make it fast

Vulcuran: Vulc: Pluger the king is gonna kill me you know that

Vulcuran: smirking

DMaster: PLUGR: Why? Cassie and Xavier are a great tatum... they will help ALOT

Vulcuran: Vulc: I know they are and will

DMaster: You guys travel for about a half hour and Cassie and Xavier show up.

DMaster: Cassie has a leather outfit that is skin tight, but dark brown.

    Her Sai's on her side and was seems to be face paint.

Vulcuran: Vulc: hey glad ya guys are here

Vulcuran: Vulc: to tell ya what is going on we are going Vampire hunting

DMaster: They both are taken back a bit but both smile

DMaster: XAVIER: *laughing a little* we can pay a visit to my old boss huh?

DMaster: CASSIE: *nudges Xavier and says under her breath* shut your hole...

DMaster: They stop and look at Xavier

Vulcuran: look at Xavier

DMaster: Cassie smacks her forehead

DMaster: ADDER: You KNOW where and what is there and you never told anyone?

DMaster: FAYLLEN: *grimaces* Would it be ok if we knew NOW?

Vulcuran: Vulc: I kinda have to agree Xavier

DMaster: XAVIER: *stops and looks at everyone* I DON'T know where they are, we met in the 
    
    village of Toopak just south of here.

DMaster: ADDER: *lifts one eyebrow* THEY?

DMaster: XAVIER: Yeah... a guy and girl, well dressed, white as a ghost.

DMaster: XAVIER: I guess Nany Dillingham has some artifact that they wanted

DMaster: WYNESS: Oh my God... what else? They have a dragon down there that

 hasn't eaten in a year?

DMaster: PLUGER: hmmmm now it makes sense huh Vulc? *glancing at you*

Vulcuran: Vulc: yeah Pluger

Vulcuran: Vulc: come on lets get moving 

DMaster: ADDER: No... wait

DMaster: ADDER: We are successful because we plan and we FOLLOW the plan.

   This could change the plan.

DMaster: ADDER: Not to go headlong into a situation that might injure or kill someone

DMaster: Fayllen and Wyness nod in agreement as they walk towards each other

DMaster: Xavier is standing there... a dopey look on his face.

DMaster: CASS: *shaking her head* dumbass....

Vulcuran: Vulc: I am full agreement so now what

DMaster: FAYLLEN: Xavier can we talk with you please?

DMaster: He nods and walks over to them

Vulcuran: shaking my head

DMaster: PLUGER: Ill get the troops in order..........

Vulcuran: looking the entire group over

DMaster: They are at attention in a battle formation

DMaster: 3 stars in front 5 stars behind and archers in the rear

DMaster: roughly 35 troops, 30 guards, 2 clerics, 2 knights and the Duke.

DMaster: Wansor and Pluger are standing off to the side talking

DMaster: Cassie is looking at you with a smirk

Vulcuran: walk over to her

Vulcuran: Vulc: and just what are you smirking at

DMaster: CASS: Bet you wished we stayed home *giggles* ohhh Xavier, he never used to 
blabber

Vulcuran: Vulc: well what is done is done

DMaster: you notice she is kinda zoning out and shaking her head a bit... glancing over 
to the 4 of them talking

DMaster: CASS: Now they know *smiling*

Vulcuran: Vulc: what did you do Cassie

DMaster: CASS: Xavier stole an artifact from Nanny's bank... 

DMaster: CASS: *whispering* he was paid ALOT of money, like 1000 Platinum

Vulcuran: Vulc: by the love of animax 

Vulcuran: slap forehead

DMaster: CASS: I beleive its the time where he knocked you out with a bag of

    coins *giggles*

DMaster: CASS: Nanny did not report it missing because it is VERY dangerous

    and illegal to own

Vulcuran: slap my forehead

DMaster: CASS: It is a container that when blood is placed in it, it turns

    into a venom and when fed to people they turn into a Vampire.

Vulcuran: Vulc: oh just great I sure hope Xavier is telling them all this

DMaster: CASS: SO instead of this being a small sect, this could be a huge lair

    we are going after

Vulcuran: Vulc: I think I have a headache now

Vulcuran: Vulc: so much for this being easy as the vampire hunters thought

DMaster: CASS: He is... they are discussing now. Adder is a little spooked,

    he knew OF the Sanguine Vial but he thought it was lost

Vulcuran: pace back and forth alittle

DMaster: Xavier is still talking about it

DMaster: CASS: Fayllen and Wyness are excited... to capture this relic and destroy it

Vulcuran: Vulc: are you reading their minds or something Cassie

DMaster: Looks at you with a sharp glance...

DMaster: CASS: You have a bad memory don't you

DMaster: CASS: And don't think that about me you dirt bag!

Vulcuran: look at her with a serious look on my face

Vulcuran: just keep pacing back and forth

DMaster: CASS: Can I see the vial you got please?

Vulcuran: Vulcuran: sure show it to her

DMaster: She opens it smells it.

DMaster: CASS: *dips her finger in and pulls out this clear gooey stuff*

DMaster: CASS: Takes out her weapons and glazes it with the ointment

Vulcuran: Vulc: ya best be sharing that

DMaster: CASS: Oh a little goes a long way

DMaster: They walk back over

DMaster: ADDER: Ok, well we seem to have a small delema

DMaster: ADDER: Our estimates for the clan would of been 5-6, now it could be any number.

Vulcuran: smirking a little since I already know this

DMaster: ADDER: Problem we have is that we think there is an insider that is

    feeding information to the clan to keep them safe, that is why this had to be done quickly

DMaster: ADDER: I do not ask ANY of you to go into a battle where we do not know

    the odds, so if you want to head back I completely udnerstand

DMaster: Everyone shakes there head no and step into line awaiting orders

Vulcuran: Vulc: well my duty is to camerondale 

DMaster: Adder looks back at the two Damphiirs and says "Brave and noble

    lot eh? We are not used to that"

DMaster: ADDER: He looks at everyone and smiles

Vulcuran: Vulc: Pluger are the men ready

DMaster: PLUGER; Yes Sire!

DMaster: WANSER: I got the back

DMaster: he runs to the back of the line

DMaster: It is about 20 o'clock

Vulcuran: look at the troops

Vulcuran: Vulc: I have never been good with speeches but what we do is for the safety and security of

   all of camerondale

Vulcuran: Vulc: I want you all to remember that today as we go into this battle

DMaster: They all nod in agreement

Vulcuran: Vulc: and pray that animax is watching over us

Vulcuran: Vulc: now Adder with this new knowledge what is our next step

DMaster: ADDER: Same as before... except we need to stage are attack.

DMaster: ADDER: once the vampire or vampires come out, we will set an attack

    into motion but 

DMaster: ADDER; Leaving half the troops back for the others to come out

DMaster: so when they come out we can have the upper hand and the first strike

Vulcuran: Vulc: aye I agree

Vulcuran: Vulc: seems we are gonna need the upper hand

DMaster: The journey there is uneventful

Vulcuran: kinda stay quiet as we go along

DMaster: Everyone is quiet...

DMaster: You see Xavier and Cassie exchange glances, they have some communication link

Vulcuran: hand staying near my sword the whole time

DMaster: About 24 o'clock, Adder stops the party

DMaster: ADDER: Ok we are hear... just a stones throw is the hole

DMaster: The sun is setting and the two moons are rising

Vulcuran: Vulc: okay now what Adder *whispering*

DMaster: ADDER: With your permission I would like to set the troops up now

Vulcuran: Vulc: yes you may

DMaster: he nods and walks over to about half the troops

Vulcuran: keep looking toward the hole

DMaster: they walk a long circle around the hole and they set up a bit farther away

DMaster: He walks back, meanwhile the other troops are gearing up for the

    initial attack, all 5 stars a few 3 stars and Wanser

DMaster: Pluger will lead the second charge with the 3 stars and archers.

    Each group has a Cleric

DMaster: Xavier and Cassie go over to the first attack group and stand put.

DMaster: ADDER: M'Lord? I am putting you in the 2nd attack ok?

Vulcuran: Vulc: as you wish Adder you know where I will best serve

DMaster: he points you to go in a large circle

Vulcuran: go take my place in the second attack group

DMaster: The sun sets, the sky is a pink to a purple with it fading to twinkling stars.

DMaster: The two moons become more visable

Vulcuran: staying sharp

Vulcuran: and focused

DMaster: The vampire hunters are in the initial attack

DMaster: Everyone goes on bended knee to wait

Vulcuran: kinda say a little prayer to animax

Vulcuran: and wait

Vulcuran: but stay sharp and focused

DMaster: So an hour passes and nothing, troops are getting anxious but they are patient

DMaster: a few of them switch knees

Vulcuran: stay sharp and focused and keep waiting

DMaster: another hour passes and nothing

DMaster: Adder tippy toes his way to you

DMaster: ADDER: we did not expect them to come out right away so it might be a

    few hours, please let your troops know

Vulcuran: Vulc: *whispering* Okay I will inform them

Vulcuran: Vulc: thank you adder

Vulcuran: slow creep over to pluger

DMaster: Pluger is next to you

Vulcuran: Vulc: *whispering* pluger make sure word gets around we may be waiting awhile and to be patient*

DMaster: He nods and slowly walks through the line of 15 guys/girls and lets

    them know whats going on

Vulcuran: stay focused and keep senses sharp

DMaster: 2 more hours pass

DMaster: Its about midnight

Vulcuran: keep hand near sword

DMaster: Suddenly behind you, you hear blood curdeling screams, completely

     taking you by surprise

DMaster: 4 of the archers in the back are being mangled by these ghoulish

    vampire like things

DMaster: The troops whurl around

DMaster: PLUGER: Attack ATTACK! 

Vulcuran: Vulc: Attack!!

Vulcuran: draw my sword

DMaster: You see close to 50 of them sprinting for the party

DMaster: 4 or so crept up and nabbed the archers

DMaster: the Archers are... very dead

DMaster: heads ripped off, throats ripped out, blood everywhere... it takes

    some of the guards by surprise.

DMaster: the two groups engage, and surround you the second tier closes in and

    attacks the backside of the swarming vampire clan

Vulcuran: start swinging at anything that engages me

DMaster: A male with long hair and pretty big fangs lunges at you

DMaster: rolling

DMaster: The vampire lunges, you were off balance a bit

Vulcuran: the dice hate me 

DMaster: but recover the throw the creature aside... it tumbles down the slight

    incline and engages with some one else

Vulcuran: staying focused

DMaster: A female with wild bloody teeth comes at you with a steely knife

DMaster: They are all screeching and making ungodly noices

DMaster: noises

Vulcuran: gonna take a swipe at her 

DMaster: She jabs at you and you dodge it, with a return you swing and hit her

    on the neck downwards

DMaster: plunging deep inside

DMaster: just than you remembered something

Vulcuran: yeah

DMaster: what DIDNT you do?

Vulcuran: I was suppose to be coating my weapon at the same time Cassie was 

Vulcuran: and let me guess I didnt

DMaster: you never said you did... she actually still has the vial as far as you know

Vulcuran: damn it

DMaster: it still did damage and alot of it, but it would double with that on it

DMaster: The creatures arm goes limp and she drops her dagger, she is trying to regroup 
and you have another attack, where?

Vulcuran: I am gonna aim for the head

Vulcuran: specifically the neck area

DMaster: ok you were off a bit and ran your blade across her

    collarbone and did little to no damage

DMaster: she swipes with her claw

DMaster: aiming for your sword arm

DMaster: rips into the chain mail and into your skin

DMaster: it sends you stumbling back

DMaster: it hurts her as well

DMaster: her hand is missing a finger now and bloody...

DMaster: another creature comes from the side, you notice him and he attacks

Vulcuran: damn

Vulcuran: see if I can block that attack

DMaster: the original creature lunges at you and the other creature attacks

    you at the same time

DMaster: you avoid the 2nd's attack

DMaster: but he struck and killed the first LOL

DMaster: so your first attacker is on the ground gurgling blood

Vulcuran: no time to laugh now

Vulcuran: time to go after the second attacker

DMaster: you have a +2 attack on the 2nd creature

DMaster: The creature tumbles away from your attack and regroups

DMaster: around you, you can see the battle is even right now

DMaster: Pluger is slashing through a creature next to you

DMaster: blood spurts everywhere

Vulcuran: stay focused on my attacker

DMaster: He has a rusty chipped broad sword

DMaster: he swings and it hits but chinks off your armor

Vulcuran: take a swing at his sword arm

DMaster: you completely miss gotta check how bad you miss

Vulcuran: damn dice hate me

DMaster: you swing full force, fully expecting to hit him and you miss sending

    you off kilter. you catch yourself with your hand but the attacker gets a free attack

Vulcuran: arrrrrrggggg

DMaster: A searing pain shoots down your back

DMaster: you see a sword appearing out of your chest

DMaster: Pluger cut the arm off of your attacker

Vulcuran: and down I go right

DMaster: it was a sneak attack, +2 with a double handed sword buy a large

    vampire with black hair and black eyes

Vulcuran: damn like I said dice hate me

DMaster: you can barely see through stars and blurriness

DMaster: you stumble forward

DMaster: PLUGER: VULC!!!!!!!!!!

DMaster: Pluger wheels around and kicks the vampire off you who was ready to
  
    lunch on your throat

DMaster: blood pours out you at a -2 HP rate

DMaster: the sword is removed and you hear a battle between pluger and the

    creature behind you

DMaster: PLUGER: *betweens clangs and gashes* Cleric over here now!!!

Vulcuran: all I can do is hope they heal me

DMaster: You see more creatures coming from farther away

Vulcuran: not gonna serve much use at the moment

DMaster: another 5 or so

DMaster: you are on all fours vomiting blood

DMaster: you get kicked to the ground

DMaster: PLUGER: act DEAD! *clang - slash - rip*

Vulcuran: play dead

DMaster: you pass out

DMaster: you feel this warm peacefulness

DMaster: run through your body

DMaster: eyes open you still hear crazy howling and noises and commotion

DMaster: You see a male cleric lift your head up...

Vulcuran: look up

DMaster: CLERIC: Get up m'lord, get up *he looks scared shitless and white as a ghost*

Vulcuran: get up

DMaster: CLERIC: *runs away froma creature but drops your sword next to you*

DMaster: you have half your HP's back

Vulcuran: grab my sword

DMaster: you have a shot at a creature chasing the cleric

Vulcuran: well I am gonna take my shot then

DMaster: +2

DMaster: backstab

DMaster: you rip through the creature

DMaster: almsot tearing him in half

DMaster: you are a good 20 feet off where the battle is right now, the cleric

    dragged you away

Vulcuran: finish the job on this creature

DMaster: the creature tries to wheel around but is almost disemboweled so you

    get another attack +2

DMaster: his head flies off with blood spurting everywhere

DMaster: the cleric shreiks and heads to the front of the battle

Vulcuran: look around

DMaster: you see that the battle is all but won at this point

DMaster: It was hit or miss but your parties experience and skill won out

Vulcuran: move back to the group

DMaster: You watch Cassie and Xavier fight a creature together, the creature didnt

    have a chance, it went after Cassie, she dodged, Xavier rips its head off and kicks it to the dirt

DMaster: Cassie lands her Sai into the creature as it howls

Vulcuran: staying focused 

DMaster: bodies everywhere, the moonlight glistens the blood that is just EVERYWHERE

DMaster: Pluger and Wanser are walking through the carnage and jamming

    anything that moves

Vulcuran: keep focused

Vulcuran: and staying sharp and head over to pluger

DMaster: Adder is tending a few wounds he got. The Damphiirs stand side by

    side eyes glowing red, catching there breath

Vulcuran: keep watching

Vulcuran: as I approach pluger

DMaster: He glances up at you

DMaster: PLUGER: I never want to see you dead ever again!

DMaster: CASS: What?!?

Vulcuran: Vulc: well me either Pluger

DMaster: your chainmail is half off, scars on your arm that is bleeding a little and a 

huge scar in the middle of your chest

DMaster: Cassie runs over looking at you in disbelief

Vulcuran: Vulc: add another scar to my collection eh Pluger

DMaster: He nods, looks at Cassie and starts to walk away

Vulcuran: lean on my sword alittle

DMaster: CASS: How did you DIE may I ask?

Vulcuran: Vulc: sword went through my chest Cassie

Vulcuran: Vulc: from one of those damn creatures

Vulcuran: rub the scar on my chest

DMaster: She runs her fingers across the fresh scar

DMaster: CASS: *shaking her head* dam..... *kisses you*

DMaster: She walks over to Pluger and turns him around and hugs him fiercely

DMaster: He was taken back a bit by that but gives her a hug back

Vulcuran: approach Adder and his group

DMaster: She knows he saved your ass

Vulcuran: he is good for doing that

DMaster: ADDER: Didn't see that sneak attack coming, that pretty much seals it...

    there was is some sort of informent or insider.

DMaster: ADDER; NO ONE could of known about this in time if they didn't

Vulcuran: Vulc: but who is the question Adder

Vulcuran: still rubbing my new scar a bit

DMaster: ADDER: I do not know your court or your castle well... it is either

    an eavesdropper or someone with premium knowledge

Vulcuran: hmmmmm

Vulcuran: Vulc: I will have to give it some thought

Vulcuran: Vulc: what is our next step adder

DMaster: ADDER: We go in

Vulcuran: Vulc: let me get fixed up alittle and we will go in

DMaster: ADDER: With all due respect M'Lord, its going to be a corridor not many

    people at one time

Vulcuran: Vulc: I figured as much a small group go in

DMaster: FAYLLEN and WYNESS will go in... from short distances they can sense Vampires

DMaster: Unfortunately it wasn't until too late did they sense the ones we

    just ran through

DMaster: ADDER: Permission to bring Xavier and Cassie M'Lord

Vulcuran: Vulc: that is up to them Adder if they want to go

DMaster: He nods and walks over to them

DMaster: they agree and head to the hole

DMaster: the Hole is about 10' X 10'

DMaster: it is edged with stones like from an old farm house

DMaster: There is a large hatch that is currently open

DMaster: and the smell is pretty foul

Vulcuran: looking at the hole

DMaster: Looks like a short drop to a floor with dirt and some smoothed stones,

    once was the floor of a great hall

DMaster: FAYLLEN and WYNESS drop down in there... in fact it is like they floated

DMaster: ADDER: *mumbling* show offs....

DMaster: He climbs down. Cassie and Xavier jump down shortly after

Vulcuran: well being dhampirs and all

DMaster: PLUGER: M'Lord

Vulcuran: Vulc: yes Pluger

DMaster: PLUGER: 12 Dead, 10 wounded and getting healed

Vulcuran: Vulc: glad it wasnt more pluger

DMaster: PLUGER : This battle did not go well *gritting his teeth but still in position*

Vulcuran: Vulc: I owe you my thanks sword brother

Vulcuran: Vulc: keep the troops on alert for anything

DMaster: He nods

DMaster: PLUGER: *winks* no way I was going to let you die not on MY watch

DMaster: PLUGER: Permission to set guards up on the area

Vulcuran: Vulc: permission granted

Vulcuran: play with my armor alittle

DMaster: its ruined

DMaster: mail is all shot, you could get it fixed, but it would probably not be as good 
as a new one

Vulcuran: okay

Vulcuran: I will keep an eye on the hole

DMaster: ok you dont hear anything

DMaster: or see anything

Vulcuran: well couldnt see in the dark anyways

DMaster: there is torch light from down the corridor

DMaster: The sky is clear the wind is a little cooler just off the plains

Vulcuran: wave pluger over

DMaster: PLUGER: *walks over* Yes Sire?

Vulcuran: Vulc: do you have anymore of that holy water like goop

DMaster: PLUGER: *rumages around in his sack...*

DMaster: Hands you a vial of clear liquid

Vulcuran: coat my sword with it

DMaster: PLUGER: Expecting more action?

Vulcuran: Vulc: I gotta a feeling we might pluger

Vulcuran: Vulc: cant be too careful

Vulcuran: Vulc: and besides I aint ready to see Animax anytime soon

Vulcuran: wink

DMaster: Agrees with you and pears down into the hole

DMaster: just than

DMaster: Cassie pops out

DMaster: brushing herself off

DMaster: CASS: Its a maze of caverns and rooms

DMaster: CASS: we met our first vampires and those Damphiirs can make

    short work of them

DMaster: CASS: This is going to take a long time, 

Vulcuran: Vulc: well we will do what needs to be done then I guess

Vulcuran: Vulc: just be careful will you

DMaster: CASS: I will *smiles at you*

DMaster: She jumps back down into the hole and you see her run off

DMaster: PLUGER: *nodding his head* sweet

Vulcuran: Vulc: and what are you 'sweeting' about pluger

DMaster: PLUGER: *looks at you* errr nothing! *walks away to the other

    troops to tell them whats going on*

Vulcuran: staying focused on the hole

Vulcuran: with sword drawn

Vulcuran: and keep a watch

DMaster: After a few hours (its 330 oclock)

DMaster: FAYLLEN jumps up out of the hole and everyone jumps a bit

DMaster: FAY: My apologies....

DMaster: FAY: we are not even close, we need rest there has been some nests of

    vampires in there but this appears to be a network of clans all connected

Vulcuran: Vulc: holy crap

DMaster: FAY: We beleive there is some intellegent leader to this outfit we

    just got to find it. I am assuming it is the individuals Xavier met with.

Vulcuran: Vulc: so we should set up camp then

Vulcuran: Vulc: gonna be here awhile

DMaster: FAY: Myself, Adder and Wyness all think they put their eggs in one

    basket and attacked us

DMaster: FAY: I think you can leave some guards but you do not have to stay M'Lords

DMaster: FAY: This is our JOB, this is what we do

DMaster: Adder climbs out of the hole

DMaster: Wyness close after

DMaster: Xavier and Cassie climb out afterwards

DMaster: CASS: Oh my god... fresh air *breathes deep*

Vulcuran: Vulc: ummm okay adder we will post a few guards here

Vulcuran: wave to pluger

DMaster: Pluger walks over to you

DMaster: PLUGER: Yes Sire

Vulcuran: Vulc: I want the best of the best to stay here and guard 

Vulcuran: Vulc: pick em out well Pluger

DMaster: PLUGER: Sire we only have a few *glances around* we came with

    30 guards, 2 clerics and us

DMaster: PLUGER: 16 guards are left, 1 cleric and... us

DMaster: PLUGER: Of the 16, 10 of them can't fight... they are injured

DMaster: PLUGER: So we can leave the 6 here and move out the rest

Vulcuran: Vulc: well then get on it Pluger

DMaster: He nods and yells for the remaining guards he has a meeting with them

DMaster: Meanwhile Xavier and Cassie come to you

DMaster: ok


DMaster: XAV: Vulc... we are wiped we are heading back

DMaster: Cassie looks really tired... looks at you and winks.

Vulcuran: Vulc: we will be heading back soon as well.

DMaster: both of them have a gallon of blood on there outfits, face, hair, they

    are dusty and gross

DMaster: They nod, pick up their gear and start walking towards home

Vulcuran: head back over to adder and his group

DMaster: PLUGER: Ok m'lord we have everything set... guards all around the hole

DMaster: we have 7 guards who can walk who will assist us in helping carry the

    other wounded

Vulcuran: Vulc: good Pluger we will move out in a minute

DMaster: PLUGER: I will send some people back to get the dead.....

DMaster: *bites his lip and shakes his head*

Vulcuran: Vulc: not a word Pluger

Vulcuran: go over to Adder and the group

Vulcuran: Vulc: adder I just wanted to say to your group to be safe and safe return

DMaster: ADDER: Thank you m'lord I sincerely appreciate all the help

    Camerondale has afforded us, I am truly sorry for the loss you have taken

Vulcuran: Vulc: well could have been alot worse 

Vulcuran: kinda looking down

Vulcuran: at the scar

DMaster: He looks at it and smiles 

DMaster: ADDER: Agreed!
